Astralis have announced the return of Emil “Magisk” Reif to the team. The experienced player steps in to replace Martin “stavn” Lund, who is taking a break from competition due to personal reasons.
Magisk previously played for Astralis between 2018 and 2021, following the departure of Markus “Kjaerbye” Kjærbye. During his first stint, he won numerous titles, including three Major championships. Afterward, he joined Vitality, where he added another Major trophy to his resume. Following two years with Falcons, Magisk now returns to Astralis, bringing a wealth of experience to the roster.
Since the departure of Casper “cadiaN” Møller, Astralis have found momentum under the leadership of Rasmus “HooXi” Nielsen. However, early exits at IEM Cologne and the Esports World Cup left the team disappointed. Magisk’s return to his old home strengthens Astralis’ ambitions on the road to the StarLadder Budapest Major.
Astralis’ current roster:
🇩🇰 Nicolai “device” Reedtz
🇩🇰 Emil “Magisk” Reif
🇩🇰 Rasmus “HooXi” Nielsen
🇩🇰 Alexander “Staehr” Staehr
🇩🇰 Jakob “jabbi” Nygaard
🇩🇰 Danny “ruggah” Sørensen (Coach)
🇩🇰 Casper “cadiaN” Møller (Substitute)
🇩🇰 Martin “stavn” Lund (Substitute)
